JOHN YONKER, OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.

LHPEGIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 748,330, dated December 29, 1903.

Application filed July 1, 1903. Serial No. 163,907. (No model.)

To all whom, it may concern:

Be it known that I, JOHN YONKER, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at No. 237 One Hundred and Third street,'in the city of Chicago, counjy of Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented an Adjustable Combination Lace and Roller Curtain Bracket, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to the combination of a lace and roller curtain bracket, and is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, where in Figure 1 is a front elevation of my complete bracket. Fig. 2 is a view of some of the parts in their separated relation; Fig. 3, aside elevation of the lace-curtain-rod tube; Fig. 4, a detail of the two rod portions of the lace-curtain rod; Fig. 5, a cross-section of the tube; Fig. 6, a cross-section of the lace-curtain-rod bracket; Figs. 7 and 8, details of the rollercurtain bracket on one end, and Figs. 9 and 10 like views of the bracket on the opposite end.

Like parts are indicated by the same letter in all the figures.

A is a tube; B 13, short rods adapted to slip into the tube and provided each with a series of perforations O C and a securing-perforation D. The rods are bent around to form angle and are provided each an upwardlyturned portion E, an outwardly-turned part F, and a tubular part G to receive the tube J, which, together with the two rods K L, form the lace-curtain rod.

M is a hook-like portion adapted to fit over the preferably-flattened perforated part of the rod B and provided with a hole N, whereby it may be secured to the rod B, and with a forwardly-projecting part 0, provided with an aperture P to receive one end of the rollercurtain rod. At the other end of the bracket isa similar hook-shaped part R, having an aperture S and forwardly-projecting part T, having slot U to receive the other end of the roller-curtain rod. It will be understood that these parts can be considerably altered without abandoning the spirit of my invention, and I do not wish to be limited as to the size, form, construction,and arrangements of parts shown.

The use and operation of myinvention are as follows: It really consists of three elementsthe lace curtain pole bracket, the roller-curtain-pole bracket, and the adjustable and connecting features. Any desired length of either lace or roller curtain can be obtained within reasonable limits by drawing the two ends of the device apart, for the rods B B slide into the tube A and the rods K L slide into the tube J. When they have been brought to the proper position, the device can be secured to the window by inserting screws or other fastening devices through the holes in the parts E E. The lace curtain can now be put on the pole intended for it and the roller-curtain rod can be put on its bracket. The parts are all securely and firmly held together in proper relation so long as the device remains secured to the window-casing.

I claim- In a lace and roller curtain fixture, the combination of an extension-rod consisting of a central tubular part with projecting telescoping end portions, having brackets integral therewith and projecting angularly therefrom, an extension lace-curtain pole consisting of a central tubular part supported on said brackets with telescoping projecting end portions, and brackets for the roller-curtain pole adj ustably secured to the projecting telescoping end portions of the extension-rod.

Signed by me at Chicago, Illinois, this 29th day of June, 1903.

JOHN YONKER.
